This charming château, embellished by a small tower, is located close to the church
in the village of Pomerol. Acquired in 1917 by Mrs. Loubat, the then famous
proprietor of PETRUS, the vineyard was owned by her niece, Mrs. Lacoste, for 40
years before she donated it to the Fondation de Foyers de Charité de Châteauneuf de
Galaure in 2002.

The vineyard, with an average age of 35 years, is characterised by its soil diversity:
rather loamy soil around the château itself and more gravelly and clayey on the best
blocks near the church.

Farming the property since 1962, Ets. Jean-Pierre MOUEIX brings the usual care
and expertise to the vineyard - entirely replanted after the 1956 frost - and to the
cellar. After a gentle fermentation in concrete tanks, the young wine is aged in 33%
new oak barrels.

Between elegance, power and smoothness, the wines of Château LATOUR show a
perfect balance.
